Holiday houses in Olifants Nek

We had an absolutely magical stay! Theunes was the perfect host—warm, welcoming, and incredibly thoughtful. He greeted us with open arms and gave us a full tour of the property. We were touched by the small but special touches like cappuccinos, KitKat bars, and a freezer stocked with ice—such a treat after the drive! The views are simply breathtaking, and we made the most of our days hiking through the valley, exploring the river, and enjoying the peaceful beauty of the farm. It’s the ideal escape for a family of four—and being so close to Joburg makes it even better. The house itself is quaint and charming, beautifully styled with antique furniture, and equipped with everything we needed (and more!). We can’t wait to return. Highly recommended!

I wish there was an option for ‘super great!’ I cannot rave enough about this hidden gem in what felt like was the middle of nowhere. Our city kids aged 7&8 had no issues playing and getting dirty and loved engaging with the donkeys, baby goats and bunnies. The resident sheepdog herded us so well he even slept in our cottage! The hike was fun too but can be a bit daunting for those who are not sure footed and there is a bit of climbing involved but the view was worth it. Loved it so much and will be back for a longer relaxing stay again soon! Thanks to everyone who looked after us!

Was a short distance from The Nut Farm Wedding Venue where we were attending a wedding. Clean, tidy and perfect place to stay

I had a great stay. Bridgette was helpful and responsive. Check in was easy. The place was also peaceful and quiet. Would definitely love to be hosted by her again.

We loved our stay. Beautiful house and surrounding. Well equipped with all needed. Very helpful hosts, went beyond what was expected to help.

Me and my partner were extremely satisfied with the place, it’s better than the pictures, so tranquil and peaceful 👌🏽 we had so much peace of mind, we had a wonderful time, Sabrina is so lovely and responds quickly.. Loved the outdoor pool and shower !! And the coffee machine!🥰 definitely gonna go back there!

Khanya was such a helpful host. She stayed up to ensure we arrive safely despite as arriving way after our check in time, as we were travelling from another country.. this is the best place to stay in when in Hartees

We needed a creative, out-of-town venue for our annual company strategic planning breakaway, and Idwala Le Ingwe Lodge proved to be the ideal place! We had an amazing and very productive time there, and all our planning sessions were held outside, overlooking the Hekpoort area. The lodge was a great choice. It offers great views, four amazing bedrooms, and a massive open entertainment area—great for working, bonding, and team-building. Being less than an hour out of town, we will definitely revisit the lodge in future,

Great place. I’ll definitely be using this place again in the future.
